AMA Advocacy Efforts

The FAA is developing new regulations that may place unnecessary restrictions on this great hobby, sport, and educational pursuit. Thanks to your hard work through our Congressional Awareness Campaign, nearly 100,000 letters were sent to Capitol Hill telling our lawmakers to protect model aviation! We spoke and they listened.

Currently we are in direct talks with many representatives and senators discussing amendments to exclude model aircraft from FAA regulation. During this time of negotiation, we are retooling our strategy for the next phase. We will keep you updated as our efforts progress. Depending on the exact verbiage of the exclusions, we will announce the next phase in our advocacy efforts. Together with our continued efforts in Washington D.C., we can preserve this fun and safe activity.
